Such a cute vibe and nice amount of variety on the menu. I went for brunch and got the orange cream soda, which was super refreshing and the french toast, which was also good and was a nice portion size as well. My only complaint is that the indoor seating area gets a bit hot.

My favorite DC bookstore (but not my favorite restaurant)! I love that the bookstore has never changed. A great selection of carefully chosen books in a bright, bustling space with friendly staff who love to read.

according to a cattle rancher, Kramers has one of the best hamburgers in DC--and I concur

Had a reservation this evening for Kramers and all I can say is WOW!! It is a cute bookstore with an amazing g restaurant and a pretty lively bar! This review is only on the restaurant! Seated promptly and greeted promptly with water, myself, and my dining partner went straight into the drink menu, we were delighted to see that they had some drafts that we enjoyed that are hard to find where we live in Virginia. My friend opted for for the Crooked Crab Red Ale, and I did Farm Fuzz from Manor Hill brewing. Both were deligh... read more

Very cool bookstore and great restaurant. The ambiance and quality of service is very good and the food we had (lunch on a Sunday) was excellent. When we needed anything, service was attentive. The cafe area has plants growing in the ceiling and nice natural light. The portion sizes were generous. I had cinnamon french toast (I ordered a side of bacon too). My wife had the green goddess salad and said it was excellent. Others had a waffle, blackened salmon, and a crab cake sandwich and everyone was happy with their meal... read more

A great bookstore not to be missed if you are near Dupont Circle in DC. Great selection of books and other interesting items.

I've been coming here for years, and each time the place is more whimsical than the last. Truly a gem in DuPont, no better place to browse books and get caffeinated. Love supporting this business and so happy it's so close to the metro. Very much a staple place in my DC living. Cannot recommend it enough.

Haven't been to Kramer's in a while and decided to come support local. Just like I remember the store was easy to navigate, and there were many books in stock that I had on my "to buy" list. The employees are always so helpful when trying to find a book. I still highly recommended shopping local for books when you can.
